"A recent study done by the Harvard School of Public Health analyzed the coffee-drinking habits of over 208,000 people over decades. In the time frame of the study, 277 of those people died by suicide. Interestingly, those people who drank 2-4 cups of coffee a day had a 50% lower risk of death by suicide. The researchers thought caffeine might be the player here, as caffeine has chemical activity that not only increases alertness (as we well know) but also has some antidepressant effects."

Very interesting. Of course, caffeine boosts mood in the short term. However, would daily consumption lead to habituation or result in a long term antidepressant effect as this study suggests?

According to Bill Maher, there'd be far,far less suicide bombings if the muslim men got laid more often.
